    Still Trying for Good Dutch Friendship Tartan Pics

    Alas, the camera and sun aren't cooperating well. Clouded up on me today. Here are the best of what I was able to get. I say again - this tartan is much more beautiful than the pics show. It lights up in the sun - its a beautiful tartan akin to Isle of Skye or Maple Leaf.





    Will continue the mission to capture the true beauty of this tartan....

    Them boots be Z Coils - www.zcoil.com Invented for joggers, adopted by infirm folks. They cushion the impact and lessen the wear and tear on folks with bad feet, ankles, knees, hips, and backs. I love 'em. Own a dozen assorted styles. GMan wears them too. Thanks to him I overcame the resistance of wearing them with kilts.

    Today on the trail the Russian guy from Siberia was fascinated with them and took photos of my Z Coils rather than the kilt. Not uncommon to have folks approach me and I gear up for a kilt comment and I get the Z Coil question instead.
